"The Writing Retreat" by Julia Bartz
I really enjoyed this one. The story follows a group of writers who have gathered at a remote retreat to overcome their creative blocks and complete their books but little do they know something much more sinister is planned for them.
I found the characters to be well-developed and relatable. The setting was vividly described, and I could easily imagine myself in the idyllic countryside setting.
One aspect of the book that surprised me was the representation of LGBTQ+ characters and relationships that provided a few surprising twist and turns!
I found the overall story to be engaging and well-written. I would definitely recommend!
